For the Subject 2 driving test, you need to bring your ID card, collect a proof of the previously completed Subject 1 test and the Subject 2 admission information at the registration office. Below is the relevant introduction to Subject 2: Small vehicle test content: The test items include five mandatory tests: reversing into a garage, parallel parking, stopping and starting on a slope, turning at a right angle, and driving on a curve (commonly known as the S-curve) (some areas also have a sixth item: high-speed card collection). Large vehicle test content: The test items include stake test, stopping and starting on a slope, parallel parking, passing a single-plank bridge, driving on a curve, turning at a right angle, passing a width-limited gate, passing continuous obstacles, driving on bumpy roads, making a U-turn on a narrow road, as well as simulations of highway driving, continuous sharp turns on mountain roads, tunnels, rainy (foggy) weather, slippery roads, and emergency handling.

Before taking the Subject 2 driving test, I believe preparation should be thorough. The ID card is the top priority—without it, you can't even enter the test site, so remember to keep it in your bag at all times. The test appointment confirmation is also essential; print it out or save a screenshot on your phone for backup, as the examiner will carefully verify it. Clothing choice shouldn’t be taken lightly—opt for lightweight, casual wear. Shoes must be flat and slip-resistant, like sneakers, to ensure stable clutch operation. Avoid thick soles or high heels, as they can easily get stuck during the test. Bring a bottle of water and some snacks—last time I took the test, I waited nearly two hours. A sip of water helps relieve stress, and a snack prevents low blood sugar dizziness. Don’t overlook vision aids either—glasses or contact lenses are a must. If you can’t see the markings clearly, reversing into the parking space will be a wasted effort. Arrive 30 minutes early to familiarize yourself with the environment, avoiding last-minute chaos. Stay relaxed—with all these preparations in place, your chances of passing will significantly increase.

Having just passed the Subject 2 test, I deeply understand that preparation must not be taken lightly. Bringing your ID card is mandatory—strict checks at entry make it indispensable. The appointment notification slip is also essential; I saved it on my phone but printed a hard copy as backup. Shoe choice is particularly critical—opt for comfortable, non-high-top sneakers, as examiners scrutinize this to prevent hazardous operations. Packing some drinking water and healthy snacks is practical for long waits, quenching thirst and staving off hunger to avoid nervous hand tremors. If you have poor vision, wearing glasses is a must—blurry markings lead to misalignment and skyrocketing error rates. I also brought small wet wipes to wipe away sweat and stay fresh, and made sure to power off my phone and store it in the break room beforehand. Mentally, leaving early prevents traffic delays, and practicing deep breathing reduces stress—these small details ensure a smooth and successful test passage.

Paying attention to the items brought for Subject 2 test is crucial from a safety perspective. I believe the ID card is fundamental to prevent identity fraud risks. The appointment slip ensures standardized procedures and avoids confusion. Wearing appropriate shoes like sneakers facilitates precise clutch operation, preventing slip accidents. Bringing water helps maintain alertness, as drowsiness in the waiting area may lead to misjudging markings. Glasses are essential for clear vision - a basic requirement for driving that becomes dangerous if lacking. Making these preparations ensures a safer and more efficient test.

Is there a time limit for selecting license plates on Traffic Management 12123?

There is a time limit. The selection period on Traffic Management 12123 is 24 hours. However, if you don't find a satisfactory license plate on 12123, you can go to the vehicle management office to select one. It's recommended to perform the 12123 pre-selection of license plates in a stable network environment, preferably using a computer. Here are the relevant details: Business application: After selecting a license plate number through the online vehicle management office system, the vehicle owner must submit the required documents to the vehicle management office within the specified time frame to complete the application process. Failure to apply within the time limit: The selected license plate will automatically become invalid and be returned to the pool of available numbers. Automatic cancellation of the selected license plate: This does not mean the vehicle owner loses eligibility for online pre-selection; they can still participate in the online pre-selection process again.

How long does it usually take for the official license plate to be delivered?

If the car owner chooses to receive the license plate by mail, the official license plate usually arrives within 3-5 days under normal circumstances. Of course, for some more remote areas, it is also common for the license plate to take more than ten days to be delivered, as license plates are only shipped via China Post or EMS, which are relatively slow. Here is some relevant information: Applying for a temporary license plate: The production of license plates does not require outsourcing, as DMVs in various regions have the tools to make license plates. However, even so, license plates are often not available on the day of registration but are mailed a few days later. In such cases, car owners can only apply for a temporary license plate for travel. DMV license plate production: The speed at which the DMV produces license plates is largely related to the number of people registering. If there is a peak season with a surge in registrations, the waiting time will naturally be longer. However, there is still a limit to the waiting time. Relevant regulations require that license plates be produced within fifteen working days. But if the timing is not ideal, such as including a long holiday like National Day within these fifteen days, the waiting time may be even longer.

Can Guangzhou Blue License Plate Quota Be Used for New Energy Vehicle License Plates?

Guangzhou Blue License Plate Quota can be used for New Energy Vehicle license plates. In the future, when replacing the vehicle, it is not limited to new energy vehicles, but the cost is that the new energy subsidies will not be available. Actually, there is no need to worry too much. If subsidies are obtained, only new energy vehicles can be replaced in the future, which significantly reduces the choices. Here are the benefits of new energy vehicles: Save fuel energy: New energy vehicles generally use natural gas, petroleum gas, hydrogen, and electricity as power sources, saving fuel energy. Reduce exhaust emissions: New energy vehicles have no exhaust emissions, effectively protecting the environment. Electric vehicles do not produce tail gas and have no pollution. Hydrogen-powered vehicles emit water as tail gas, causing no pollution to the environment. Because they are basically zero-emission, they are also outside the scope of traffic restrictions. High efficiency: Generally, new energy vehicles adopt new technologies and structures, making them more efficient.

Do You Still Need to Press the Brake When Turning Off an Automatic Transmission Car?

When turning off an automatic transmission car, you need to press the brake. Driving an automatic transmission car only requires the use of the parking gear (P), reverse gear (R), neutral gear (N), and drive gear (D), which can fully meet the needs of general driving. However, in some special driving environments, other functional gears may be needed. Below is a related introduction: Manual/Automatic Transmission: This allows high-performance sports cars to not be limited by traditional automatic transmission constraints, enabling drivers to enjoy the fun of manual shifting. These cars have "+" and "-" gear selection options on their gear positions. In D gear: You can freely shift down (-) or up (+), just like a manual transmission. Drivers can force a downshift to slow down before entering a turn, similar to a manual transmission, and accelerate out of the turn in low or medium gear. Some automatic transmission cars have "+" and "-" shift buttons added to the steering wheel, allowing drivers to shift up or down without taking their hands off the wheel. When starting the engine: The automatic transmission also imposes restrictions on gear positions, which are adjustments made by manufacturers for safety reasons. Generally, the engine can only be started when the gear lever is in the P or N position.
